Proposition 2.2.9 in "Multidimensional Real Analysis I: Differentiation" asserts that if the partial derivatives of a continuously differentiable function exist at a point and are continuous in a neighborhood, then the function is a local diffeomorphism in that neighborhood. This conclusion is directly supported by Lemma 1.1.7 (iv), which establishes the same conditions for local diffeomorphism. The continuity of the partial derivatives ensures the existence of a neighborhood where the function maintains the required properties. Thus, the implications of Lemma 1.1.7 (iv) validate the claims made in Proposition 2.2.9. Understanding this relationship is crucial for grasping the foundational concepts of differentiation in multidimensional analysis.

I am reading "Multidimensional Real Analysis I: Differentiation" by J. J. Duistermaat and J. A. C. Kolk ...

I am focused on Chapter 2: Differentiation ... ...

I need help with an aspect of the proof of Proposition 2.2.9 ... ...

Duistermaat and Kolk's Proposition 2.2.9 and its proof read as follows:

In the above text D&K state that Lemma 1.1.7 (iv) implies Proposition 2.2.9 ...

Can someone please indicate how/why ths is the case ...

Lemma 1.1.7 (iv): Let D be an open set in R^n, let f: D -> R^m be a continuously differentiable function and let x be an interior point of D. Suppose that the partial derivatives of f exist at x and are continuous in a neighbourhood of x. Then there is a neighbourhood U of x such that f is a local diffeomorphism on U; i.e., for all y in U, the derivative of f at y has rank m.===========================================================================================To answer Peter's question, we can see from Lemma 1.1.7 (iv) that if the partial derivatives of f exist at x and are continuous in a neighbourhood of x, then there is a neighbourhood U of x such that f is a local diffeomorphism on U. This is exactly what D&K state in Proposition 2.2.9, which is that if the partial derivatives of f exist at x and are continuous in a neighbourhood of x, then f is a local diffeomorphism. Therefore, Lemma 1.1.7 (iv) implies Proposition 2.2.9.
 
We all know the definition of n-dimensional topological manifold uses open sets and homeomorphisms onto the image as open set in ##\mathbb R^n##. It should be possible to reformulate the definition of n-dimensional topological manifold using closed sets on the manifold's topology and on ##\mathbb R^n## ? I'm positive for this. Perhaps the definition of smooth manifold would be problematic, though.
